I went to your site but couldn't figure out how to see any more Tokyo photos than this one.

Thaddeus,

There is no more images in this series. This one shows everything I want to say about living in Tokyo. It is kind of statement, one image serie :)

I like this shot a lot . I love the silhouette of the people and the neon sign looks nice and sharp :D .
Maybe give it just a slight saturation/contrast boost to lift it a little .

Wow It's "Sharp"

You can even read the signs inside the store

Thaddeus,

Propably I should mention it at the beginning. Sorry for trouble.

Drifter,

I am not sure if busting saturation wil do good. It seems on my computer that it is about right, allready quite colourfull. I recon that busting saturation would make to look this image a bit fake, plastic. I like colour, but also there is a line where more colour will not work better.

If this is possible I would be happy others user opinions about colour and saturation.


Ipv6ready,

105/2.5 manual :)

K.Polak

I think you have captured Tokyo very well. It is just how i remember it.

You have picked a difficult image to expose but have done a good job of it. I do feel that the bright lights of the shop are too overexposed though and perhaps if you shot it in RAW you may be able to tone it down a little as a layer in PS.

But you have captured the mood of the city which is what you intended.

I like this shot (and concept) a lot, BUT there is one flaw with it; all of the signs are in english!
There's nothing to indicate that this is actually Tokyo. I'd probably assume it was New York or another large city if it weren't for the title.

Just being picky - great shot otherwise!
